Disabling the firewall also allows access to the routers' internal services from the WAN-side, although there seems to be some default logic disallowing these to function e.g. "User 'Administrator' is disallowed to login from wan to telnet" etc. ''(Actually this is in the config - user 'Administrator' has Administrator rights for local admin only, user 'admin' has SuperUser rights for remote admin only).''
Disabling the firewall also exposes the DNS forwarder (whose software seems to have NO restrictions on the client-IP used!).
